Well here you have a very small edit; all the power turbines toghether.
This will minimize the exploit of upgrading the GDI power plants 1 level and when damaged, upgrading it again, to refill the hitpoints of it wink1.gif

A small, yet quite well though up and time-saving job. Good work.

I've never had any problem with that exploit... The only thing I got tired of was building the upgrades (which is why I never build them in the first place tongue.gif).

It's a good idea (I always preferred just building an advanced power plant over having to build upgrades), but you should be able to get a power plant that already has all it's upgrades by only using existing SHP.

Well, I just wanted to upgrade the powerplant once, not making an advanced one, and yeah I'm too lazzy to upgrade all powerplants twice, so I made this to upgrade them just once lol.gif

Why do you say it then?
But it's funny, and timesaving... But you can't use it online, when you need it the most.
@Johan: Why don't you build them? That saves much space!!

There's also more than enough space... And building more power plants gives your opponent more work and it's also a lot safer.

Don't know about everyone else, but i already love this guy.
Good to have you here Machine, with your nifty little downloads.

This one is also something else i really need... (No I'm not going to tell you what i'm doing... Yet...)
You will be credited. wink1.gif

And Bittah is right In my opinion, the addons are a waste of time.
Most of the time it 'IS' Better to simply buy more plants, but its easier when Nod... Advanced...

Downloaded, Thanks Machine. :biggrin:

That's a pretty good idea actually... If you insist on GDI keeping their unique 'ability' to upgrade buildings. If it was up to me (and I was focusing mainly on gameplay), I'd just get rid of all that upgradeable stuff all together though (and let component towers be build with whatever turret you want on it right away and have a normal and advanced GDI power plant) rolleyes.gif

i would recommend to remove the third turbine on the right side. This is already on the powerplant (ActiveAnim=GAPOWR_A) and thus redundant. Except you want all 3 synchronized.

--------------------

Mommy I'm sorry if my first letter made you cry
To be honest with you I don't think that I wanna die
Sometimes I feel like that I'm cancerous in others lives
Thats probably why I drink at night and sleep till 4 or 5
It's kinda hard walking through life with my distorted eyes
When I was younger I was stupid and I thought I thrived
I thought alot about everything I said in the letter
And questioned whether or not if I was dead you'd be better
You think my shorty would be happy if I never met her
It's too late now mommy I could never forget her
Could never forget how she told me to love
Cuz my father and my grandmother is always above
It's glory above you know that daddy taught me to thug
And everytime we was with nanny she'd bombard me with hugs (damn)
I MISS 'EM mommy and it's hard to believe
That I'm grown and I don't understand it - why did they leave

GAPOWR_A is not the third turbine, its some light on the cooling tower tongue.gif

just wondering: has anyone ever made a Power Plant BuildUp and cameo with the third turbine removed?

Yes, I have one (Buildup), but I didn't make it. But you could use the original an use this shp on top of it. You won't even notice it. tongue.gif
